Soft robotics is a rapidly evolving field where robots are fabricated using highly deformable
materials and usually follow a bioinspired design. Their high dexterity and safety make them …

Fiber–a primitive yet ubiquitous form of material–intertwines with our bodies and
surroundings, from constructing our fibrous muscles that enable our movement, to forming …

FlowIO is a miniature, modular, pneumatic development platform with a software toolkit for
control, actuation, and sensing of soft robots and programmable materials. Five pneumatic …

We introduce shape-changing swarm robots. A swarm of self-transformable robots can both
individually and collectively change their configuration to display information, actuate …

Purpose This study aims to explore the interplay between organizational culture, available
resources, change management competency, and employee attitudes towards digital …

In the past few years, vacuum-powered soft actuators have shown strong potential due to
their promising mechanical performance (ie, fail-safe, fast response, compactness …

This paper introduces Sketched Reality, an approach that combines AR sketching and
actuated tangible user interfaces (TUI) for bi-directional sketching interaction. Bi-directional …

Machine knitting is an increasingly accessible fabrication technology for producing custom
soft goods. However, recent machine knitting research has focused on knit sha**, or on …

We introduce HERMITS, a modular interaction architecture for self-propelled Tangible User
Interfaces (TUIs) that incorporates physical add-ons, referred to as mechanical shells. The …

Inflatable systems have been attracting attention in the field of interaction design.
Conventional tabletop-sized pneumatic systems tend to be complex because they require …
